This clinical case focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of forced eruption in a patient with dental trauma.
Objective: To propose an alternative multidisciplinary treatment that allows increasing dental structure through forced extrusion and subsequently rehabilitating it in function and aesthetics.
Methods: We describe the case of a 78-year-old adult male patient, healthy and with no pathological history, who attended the Orthodontics and Dentomaxillofacial Orthopedics Specialty Clinic, referred by an Endodontics specialist, due to a crown-root fracture of the upper right canine, abutment of a three-unit fixed bridge. Intraoral examination revealed a cervical fracture of the crown of the upper right canine. As a first step, endodontic treatment was performed on the tooth and an intracanal support device was placed (cast endopost), in order to improve orthodontic traction. This device consisted of a cast post with perforations. Fixed appliances were placed in the upper arch using the MBT technique (slot 0.022), from the right molar to the left canine with indirect and passive cementation (with the bracket slots aligned). Immediately afterwards, a rectangular 0.019 x 0.025 stainless steel arch was placed with an extrusion bend at the level of the upper right canine. A helix-type loop was adapted to the same bend, which served as support for placing the passive ligature (lace back).
Results: The treatment carried out on this patient is satisfactory, contributing to his general health and improving his self-esteem.
Conclusion: Here, all the advantages offered by forced orthodontic extrusion were taken advantage of, even in an elderly patient, achieving a traction of four millimeters, which was achieved thanks to the use of light and controlled extrusive forces on the affected tooth. With the treatment modality described, crown lengthening can be achieved without the need for bone resection, which allows for proper prosthetic rehabilitation, restoring function and aesthetics to the injured tooth and providing a comprehensive benefit to the patient.
